I'm sorry to hear about Harry Wilson's passing and your family's loss. I've heard that he was indeed a standout player for the Huskers, leaving a lasting impact with runs like that iconic 66-yarder against Oklahoma. Such moments really stick with you, especially as a lifelong fan.
Coincidentally, I stumbled upon your post while dealing with a recent loss in my family. We're exploring cremation as an option, finding it practical and respectful. If you're considering it too, websites like https://cremationsdirect.co.uk/ provide helpful insights.

One of my favorite Huskers of all time.
He played a role in helping NU on the way to becoming a bigtime program.
